Good call, adding that to the FAQ now. It's 12" tall and 3.25" in diameter.

My only knowledge of inches is from subway, but 12" means the length of a footlong sub, so I have a better sense of scale now :)
12" is about a third of the length of a Bald Eagle or slightly shorter than the barrel of an M4-Carbine.

EDIT: I just measured and 12" is about 3 times the diameter of a McDonald's Quarter Pounder patty.

A bald eagle? Only unicorns here.
